“You Are What You Eat”: Vegetables, Fruits Honey, and Edible Flowers, February 25

Explore the nutritional benefits provided for New England living from local honey, vegetable and fruits. Why do we have berries in the spring, fleshy fruit in the summer and firm fruit in the fall? Why do we have asparagus and dandelions in the spring? What are the benefits of edible flowers besides their beauty? Why do we have leafy greens only in the summer? Why can Kale be so hardy and what are the benefits? Join a panel of experts at the Lee Grange to learn the answers to these questions and more.
